More than just a Film-Making Camp

"It’s more than just a film-making camp. We create a safe environment to communicate, collaborate and produce something to share. When our campers see the finished product at the red carpet screening, they have a sense of accomplishment as well as community. It gives them a voice.”

Quiet on the set!” is a phrase often heard at the Joey Travolta Film Camp. Joey Travolta, a former special education teacher, creates, coordinates, and actually facilitates this short film camp alongside of our staff. This is an inclusive film camp specifically designed to address social, communication, executive function, transition and vocational goals as defined by each student’s IEP or OVR. For two straight weeks, campers will be actively engaged in teamwork with the objective of producing a short film. Concept development, story boarding, acting, costume design, set design, production and editing are just a few aspects of the real work experience gained through participation in this two week program.

The camp will be held July 13th-24th, 2015. Monday to Friday 10am-3pm; before care is available. Register now to save your spot!
